Travel time: 22 february — 1 march 2010
Who does the author recommend the hotel to?: For a relaxing holiday; For families with children
Let's start with the arrival at the airport:
flew on tours from Pegasus - the transfer is organized for a solid five + the same applies to trips on excursions. All guides are friendly, sociable and happy to share interesting information. Indeed, the level of hospitality and awareness is an order of magnitude higher than in the same Taba.
Our guide at the hotel is Nadezhda, a very cool person and specialist with many years / rich experience.
Feel free to ask, she has an individual approach to each tourist. Nadia, thank you!!!
About the hotel itself:
I'll start with the good:
- The sea is just super, a huge number of fish of different colors - right next to the pontoon. It's worth coming here for that alone!
- The hotel is protected from the wind, so even in windy weather you can relax on the beach and not freeze

- On the territory there is one main restaurant (breakfast + lunch + dinner) + 3 additional (oriental, fish and Italian) - each can have dinner once + additional snacks (french fries, battered fish and all sorts of hamburgers) and drinks on the beach. You will definitely not be hungry, the main thing is not to gain kilograms : -)
- The staff knows Russian, English at a sufficient level. Be calm, you will be understood anyway
- There are 3 swimming pools on the territory (one of them is heated - just a fairy tale for children)
- Huge green area
A spoon of tar:
- Nutrition. A lot of inedible and tasteless food (especially sweets - they looked pretty, but NONE tasted. honestly, there was nothing to choose from... ) We liked everything offered: stewed beef and lamb, kebabs, fish, even a couple of times there were squids. Fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbage. Fruits - melon, orange, grapefruit, dates.
You won't go hungry, but still. . .
3 additional restaurants are not much different in terms of quality and delicious food. But the quality of service is at its best, the waiters rush about and try their best to please you, how can you not leave a tip here, the guys are really great !!!
- Drinks - they are greedy, but if you find contact with the bartender, then he becomes much more generous) It seems to be all inclusive, but you have to beg or appease the bartender. The residue remains. . .
- Service in the main restaurant is unfortunately lame : -(
Tables are not wiped from previous visitors, but are served on top of the table with crumbs. They practically do not pay attention to our brother, you can wait 10 minutes until the table is cleared, even if you have already asked for it 2-3 times. Especially ignore the male become. But the same Italians, well, they simply idolize, even water, wine is poured into glasses
- The furniture in the rooms is old, but we did not come here to sit in the room...
- The animation is weak, almost inaudible - in the morning a yoga lesson, then a Latin American dance lesson and in the evening some kind of show and even go to the nearest disco with tourists. The hotel is more suitable for tourists who want a relaxing holiday. If you shuffle - then you are not here.

- Security. Keep all personal belongings in a safe or carry them with you. Do not leave on tables, etc. , unfortunately there were precedents : -(.
The hotel does not have any working video camera, so if you have lost something, do not even hope to find or return it.
Yes, in fact, this hotel has 4 *, not 5 as some travel agencies sell it.
But as for me, it will pull on 3+. Although here everyone decides for himself and depending on the thickness of his wallet.
